So what does every old-time trekkie need when he's finished his home theatre room? That's right, a monstrous lighted replica of his favourite version of the iconic starship protecting said home theatre room.

This is it, I'm done collecting movie replicas because I just received my holy grail. I've promised the wife this'll be the last of it, but she's worth it. (The wife AND the Enterprise, that is.)

It was built for me by a prop company in Florida and is almost 3 feet in length. It has all the working lights of the ST:TMP version, including finished botanical gardens and VIP lounge. The thing even has a remote control to active them.

I had just to share pictures of it with you guys.

That's really cool. My son is asking if you will adopt him ?

I can't say that I'm into collecting that stuff, but that is pretty freaking cool. You must be pretty happy, they did a great job.

Yeah, that looks really great. I should watch some old Star Trek again. It's been forever.

That is really awesome. I am sure that it cost a couple pretty pennies, but very nice adition. I was collecting movie props and such years ago, but sold pretty much everything when we moved to our current house as there was no place to display them. Version 2 of my home theater was more of a general purpose room (pictures have been in my sig. for a while), and now that I am in version 3, there just isn't room for anything. I don't even have posters on the walls because I don't want light from the screen reflecting off of the poster box's glass...

Maybe in version 4 , but that would require us to move ...

A lot of us have movie props from The Naked Mile, if I remember correctly.

Love the entire collection, more of a Star Wars buff than Trekkie, but the Enterprise is still THE most iconic starship there is. I have always wondered if they will try to emulate it in the future just to see if it works.
